[Novalug] coding for testing

[Brander Snaxe]

Unit testing code is always a requirement in today's day and age. My development team is doing this as part of their development.

Now we have reached a point in our QA where things are taking way too long and some things are missed. We are looking to automate some of the QA work using automated mechanisms. I'm sure the developers will be needed to help set up this 'QA automated infrastructure' to some extent. We are in research phase, so I don't have details but thought I'd chime in that we are looking to do something similar I believe.

Subject: [Novalug] coding for testing

I was having a discussion at the office today.  The coders here are
entirely against writing a single lick of code where it's purpose
will be to support the testing of the software.

That got me to wondering... I wonder how other software developers
feel about writing code to help software testing.  Is my company just
a one-off?  or do the majority of software developers feel the same way?
